Hello and welcome to the banks of the River Clyde,

0:00:120:00:15

where we record The Quay Sessions every week on BBC Radio Scotland.

0:00:150:00:20

Country singer Holly Macve

0:00:400:00:43

and, with their special furry fan,

0:00:430:00:45

British Sea Power.

0:00:450:00:47

Thank you all very much for coming!

0:00:470:00:50

But first, a band who rose through the ranks of the London

0:00:500:00:53

folk-rock scene.

0:00:530:00:54

They've now gone widescreen, embracing a more anthemic approach

0:00:540:00:58

on their latest album, and to great effect, as you're about to hear.

0:00:580:01:02

This is Bear's Den.

0:01:020:01:05

# Auld wives lifts

0:01:240:01:27

# Auld wives lifts

0:01:290:01:33

# How have you got here?

0:01:330:01:36

# Where do you come from?

0:01:400:01:43

# What do you tell?

0:01:430:01:45

# I see his face

0:01:490:01:54

# I see his face

0:01:540:01:58

# Carved deep in the stone

0:01:580:02:01

# Another mind you have taken away

0:02:060:02:10

# But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

0:02:140:02:19

# A trace of all that you have left behind

0:02:190:02:23

# And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

0:02:240:02:28

# Without a child for to call out your name

0:02:280:02:33

# Now I call your name

0:02:370:02:41

# I call your name

0:02:420:02:46

# But you can't hear me now

0:02:460:02:49

# No, you don't recognise my face

0:02:540:02:58

# Who are you?

0:03:020:03:06

# Who are you?

0:03:080:03:11

# And why do you call me that?

0:03:110:03:14

# How dare you call me that

0:03:200:03:23

# But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

0:03:270:03:32

# A trace of all that you have left behind

0:03:320:03:36

# And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

0:03:380:03:41

# Without a child for to call out your name

0:03:410:03:46

# But I call your na-aa-ame

0:03:500:03:54

# I call your na-aa-ame

0:03:550:04:00

# I call your na-aa-ame

0:04:000:04:03

# I call your na-aa-ame

0:04:050:04:09

# But I swam across the ocean to find your memory

0:04:300:04:36

# A trace of all that you have left behind

0:04:360:04:39

# And the auld wives swore that you were born to die

0:04:410:04:44

This song is called Away From Today.

0:05:210:05:24

# I hit the ground running

0:05:440:05:47

# Running all the way from sin

0:05:480:05:50

# She stole my heart faster

0:05:540:05:57

# Than the bullet that I put in him

0:05:570:06:00

# She took the case and I grabbed the wheels

0:06:040:06:06

# She taught me to fend and taught me to steal away

0:06:060:06:10

# My hands are shaking My knees are weak

0:06:140:06:16

# The rush I crave the long you seek away

0:06:160:06:19

# Away, away from today

0:06:240:06:31

# Away from today

0:06:340:06:39

# Away from today

0:06:420:06:46

# I open my eyes and roll to my side

0:06:510:06:54

# And the surprise of the morning sun

0:06:540:06:57

# She took to the road and left me alone

0:07:000:07:04

# Before a heartbeat had begun

0:07:040:07:07

# So I drove through the night And chased it to light

0:07:100:07:13

# The hunt lasted days I thought I'd lost my way

0:07:130:07:17

# But there she lay

0:07:170:07:19

# Now my hands are stained

0:07:200:07:22

# My tears are black

0:07:220:07:23

# Watch me as I turn my back and go

0:07:230:07:26

# Away

0:07:300:07:32

# Away from today

0:07:330:07:37

# Away from today

0:07:410:07:45

# Away from today

0:07:480:07:53

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:08:480:08:50

# I lie still

0:09:010:09:06

# And think of you lying

0:09:060:09:10

# I think about your lines and your hollows

0:09:100:09:18

# I think of the sea

0:09:180:09:22

# And its hallowed furrows

0:09:220:09:27

# Today's regrets

0:09:270:09:30

# Tomorrow's sorrows

0:09:300:09:35

# Today's regrets

0:09:350:09:39

# Tomorrow's sorrows

0:09:390:09:45

# You're dive-bombing in the bay

0:10:020:10:08

# Fall in belonging and lifting up the same way

0:10:100:10:17

# The sea now ultramarine

0:10:190:10:25

# The sand, a drum

0:10:260:10:29

# The sun, a shiny tambourine

0:10:290:10:33

# A rising tide swells and recedes

0:10:360:10:42

# Gives a little

0:10:430:10:46

# Takes more than it needs

0:10:460:10:50

# They're dive-bombing in the bay

0:11:120:11:18

# Fall in belonging and lifting up the same way

0:11:190:11:27

# And none would sing along the thread

0:11:280:11:34

# Yet on the wing, each one behind the one ahead

0:11:360:11:44

# A rising tide swells and recedes

0:11:450:11:51

# Gives a little

0:11:530:11:55

# Takes more than it needs

0:11:550:11:59

# A rising tide swells and recedes

0:12:010:12:09

# Gives a little

0:12:090:12:11

# Takes more than it needs. #

0:12:280:12:30

We've been trying to get this man to The Quay Sessions for

0:12:300:12:33

a very long time indeed.

0:12:330:12:34

What better occasion than our very special link-up with 6 Music?

# When I first saw you something stirred within me

0:13:120:13:16

# You were standing sultry in the rain

0:13:160:13:19

# If I could have held you I would have held you

0:13:530:13:55

# I hope to God

0:13:550:13:56

# When I first saw you my heart reached out for you

0:14:070:14:11

# My arms stuck like glue to my sides

0:14:110:14:15

# If I could have held you I would have held you

0:14:150:14:20

0:14:470:14:49

# I hope to God

0:14:490:14:51

# And there were times I'd take my pen

0:14:510:14:54

# Feel obliged to start again

0:14:540:14:55

# I took the best but there are things in life

0:14:550:14:58

# That worked out quite express

0:14:580:15:01

# You know me I'm acting dumb, dumb

0:15:010:15:05

# You know the scene is very humdrum

0:15:050:15:10

# And my favourite song's entitled Boredom

0:15:100:15:15

# Da-dum, da-dum... #

Go, Sean!

# I spend my summer by the sea

0:22:000:22:03

# To look for what I lost

0:22:030:22:07

# Oh, once I had a dream or two

0:22:070:22:10

# But I sold them at a cost

0:22:100:22:13

# Often I would wonder why

0:22:130:22:16

# We try so hard to stay alive

0:22:160:22:20

# When nothing ever seemed to cease the pain

0:22:200:22:24

# My best friend was a homeless man

0:22:260:22:29

# With a beard to hide his face

0:22:290:22:33

# Secretly I loved him so

0:22:330:22:36

# But he was twice my age

0:22:360:22:39

# We'd talk and we would sing all day

0:22:390:22:42

# Collecting sorrows to throw away

0:22:420:22:45

# But nothing ever seemed to cease the pain

0:22:450:22:50

# I worked by day and by night I drank

0:22:520:22:55

# I danced until my mind was blank

0:22:550:22:59

# And when the morning came to me

0:22:590:23:02

# I'd only ever do the same

0:23:020:23:06

# Everybody said to me

0:23:060:23:09

# Maybe what would set me free

0:23:090:23:12

# But no-one has the answers

0:23:120:23:15

# Oh, no-one has any answers at all

0:23:150:23:20

# The sky was blue and the sun was out

0:23:430:23:47

# Whilst I hid from the world

0:23:470:23:50

# Life was strange through the window panes

0:23:500:23:53

# And all my toes would curl

0:23:530:23:56

# Oh, I wanted nothing more

0:23:560:24:00

# Than to understand what we're living for

0:24:000:24:03

# When all we do is damn what we start

0:24:030:24:08

# People put their faith in God

0:24:100:24:13

# They don't think

0:24:130:24:14

# They just nod their heads

0:24:140:24:16

# Cos they just wanna know

0:24:160:24:19

# When they die, where they're gonna go

0:24:190:24:23

# Everybody said to me

0:24:230:24:26

# Maybe it will set you free

0:24:260:24:29

# But no-one has the answers

0:24:290:24:32

But to play us out, the Isle of Eigg's very own musical maverick.

0:25:310:25:34

This is the mighty Pictish Trail.

0:25:340:25:35

# You feel light through golden eyes

0:25:380:25:41

# Sing sun-warped screams at passers-by

0:25:410:25:46

# The cassette decayed tape spool delayed and fried

0:25:460:25:53

# You should let it all rewind

0:25:530:25:57

# To solemn autumn morning shine

0:25:570:26:01

# And start up again

0:26:010:26:03

# Sing up again and over every line

0:26:030:26:09

# You are never coming back

0:26:120:26:15

# Crawl into the after life

0:26:150:26:19

# You can never turn it back

0:26:220:26:25

# Surrender to the after life

0:26:250:26:29

# Reliving life, one side at a time

0:26:290:26:33

# Future echoes pass you by

0:26:330:26:37

# As we near the end

0:26:370:26:39

# A noose around the neck

0:26:390:26:41

# Say it isn't mine

0:26:410:26:45

# Reeling years, one side at a time

0:26:450:26:49

# Slide through gears, life self-rewinds

0:26:490:26:53

# Goes on again and on and then

0:26:530:26:56

# Remember to remind

0:26:560:27:01

# You are never coming back

0:27:030:27:07

# Crawl into the after life

0:27:070:27:11

# You can never turn it back

0:27:130:27:17
